Abstract
The jet phenomenon is a normal finding in excretory urography [in children]. The presence of such a jet is a good sign that vesico-ureteral reflux is not present. Of 19 ureters with a jet sign, only 1 had minimal transient ureteral reflux, while in 39 ureters without a jet sign 15 had reflux.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
